Tutu Pele is dancing again 😍

Today, Halemaʻumaʻu is fountaining with the power that has shaped this island for generations. What scientists have been forecasting as Episode 49 appears to be underway after days of summit inflation and increased activity.

For some, it's geology

For some, it's history

For many of us who call Hawaiʻi home, it's also a reminder that this island is still being created before our eyes.
Whether you see Pele as a force of nature, a cultural ancestor, or both, moments like this inspire respect. The land beneath our feet is not finished yet.
